Becoming a winner in life starts with becoming a shadow

Chapter 247 Fenrir is forced into a corner.

Half a day later, in the depths of the Magic Swordsman Academy, in a white fog area that cannot be reached without special methods, hurried footsteps sounded near a special metal door.

"Lord Fenrir!" The visitor hurriedly said after seeing the figure standing outside the gate.

"What's the matter?" Fenrir, who was looking at the gate in deep thought, asked without turning back.

"Claire Kageno suddenly returned to the academy." The visitor immediately replied.

"She hasn't graduated yet, what's so surprising about returning to the academy?" Fenrir turned around and looked at the visitor and asked.

Fenrir paid considerable attention to Claire, because Claire's champion of this Martial God Festival Competition was quite special.

Relying solely on his spirit to cause more than half of the audience to faint, just for this strength beyond common sense, the two kings present favored him, and King Garuk of Oriana even promised him the title of Duke.

This storm has not yet passed, and recently it was reported that she almost killed a group of nobles who were invited to the banquet in Kageno territory with her own murderous intention.

This series of events made Fenrir unable to ignore it.

In the past, Fenrir might have asked someone to try to contact Claire.

But this era is completely different from the past. First, a mysterious organization that opposed the cult and has always had the upper hand appeared.

Then there appeared this kind of magic swordsman with power beyond common sense.

But the magic swordsman is still a woman, so Fenrir can't help but think too much.

In fact, Fenrir thinks that there are very few people who can be better than him in sword skills alone.

But relying on breath to make people comatose or even die touches Fenrir's blind spot in knowledge.

People are full of vigilance against the unknown.

"Lord Fenrir, Claire Kageno went to the top of the academy as soon as she returned to the academy. The purpose was only one, to apply for her brother Sid Kageno to leave school and study on her own." The visitor immediately replied.

"Leave school to study on your own?!" Fenrir was surprised when he heard this.

"Yes, according to the news, Claire thinks that the knowledge that the academy can teach Sid is limited, and she needs more time to train her brother, so she hopes that Sid Kageno will not attend the academy's courses on weekdays, and only come back to take exams at the end of the semester." The man immediately explained.

"Trouble!" Fenrir frowned after hearing this.

After all, he recently planned to use special ancient relics to link all the students in the academy, and rely on the magic power of these students to remove the seal in front of him.

Among them, people with strong strength like Claire are the best target.

Of course, Fenrir did not expect the ancient relics in his hand to be hidden from Claire's eyes, so he set his sights on Li De.

He wanted to force Claire to submit through Li De, and even rely on controlling Li De to control Claire.

Not only are they siblings, but they are also lovers who have had an intimate relationship.

The status of both parties in each other's hearts is naturally self-evident.

It might be a little unrealistic to expect to control Li De to threaten the future fiancée to surrender, but forcing Claire to do it is definitely possible.

Fenrir is convinced of this.

In addition, Alexia and Alice have been planning and arranging with great fanfare recently, and the spearhead has been pointed at the black gloves [Sword of the Thirteenth Night] outside the cult, which has made the other party ask for help more than once.

After all, the slash that broke through the sky was really a bit scary.

Yes, even Fenrir thought the slash a few days ago was outrageous.

You have to know that the ground is at least thousands of meters away from the clouds floating in the sky.

A slash flew thousands of meters away and cut through the clouds, and it didn't dissipate even after flying out of sight. If you don't see it with your own eyes, who can believe it is true.

But it is precisely because too many people saw it with their own eyes that some people are scared to death.

Therefore, Fenrir did not dare to find a secret place to lure people in like he did with those [Messengers of Justice], and then show up with absolute power to make those [Messengers of Justice] feel the gap of despair, and then accept these people as dogs.

Because Fenrir felt that if the two princesses did not have any tricks such as sleight of hand in their slashes, according to the previous routine, he would become the party that felt the gap of despair, and then become a dead dog.

It was precisely because Fenrir felt strong pressure that he wanted to control Claire and let Claire deal with the two sisters Alexia and Alice.

Even if Fenrir felt that the rapid increase in the strength of the two sisters in a short period of time had something to do with Claire, he had no choice.

So he kept staring at Reed, waiting for Reed to return to the academy.

As for Maria and Nix, the people of the Diabolos Cult actually monitored Claire as early as after she became famous.

However, because there was no direct pressure from Alexia and Alice before, Fenrir planned to take it slowly.

After all, even for the Diabolos Cult, there is only one chance to raid and capture.

And from the time Claire became famous to now, in fact, not many days have passed in the shadow world.

Fenrir himself did not expect that Maria and Alice disappeared at the same time before the capture plan was completed.

After a few days, only Alice appeared again, and Maria became a corpse.

Even more unexpectedly, after Alice came back, the two princesses of the Kingdom of Midgar showed their invincible strength one after another.

Feeling the pressure, Fenrir wanted to push forward the capture plan, but after a closer look, he found that Maria had died inexplicably before she could do anything.

The rest of the people, except for Reed who had always been with Claire, were really worth capturing, and Nix was not worth capturing at all.

Originally, it was thought that after Reed returned to the Magic Swordsman Academy, there would be as many opportunities to capture him as possible, but who would have thought that Claire would do such a thing.

"Lord Fenrir, why don't you just do it!" the man suggested.

"Why do you think this is not a trap?" Fenrir asked the man.

"Lord Fenrir, I can't confirm it, but I'm afraid the chance will only last today." The man then humbly replied.

"What do you mean?" Fenrir asked the man.

"The academy did not agree to it immediately because they did not want to break off the relationship with Claire Kageno. But under pressure from Claire, the dean said that they needed to discuss with others, which delayed Claire Kageno.

But the delay will definitely be limited. One is that no one is willing to risk their lives to offend Claire Kageno, and the other is that after leaving the academy, the woman went straight to the palace.

I think after today, Sid Kageno will probably not come to the Magic Swordsman Academy again except for the final exams. And judging from the current situation, we don't have that much time to deal with it.

After all, people with a discerning eye can see that Knowing that the royal family's target is actually us, [The Thirteen Night Sword] is just a preliminary test. After all, with the current strength of the royal family, it doesn't take so long to remove [The Thirteen Night Sword].

I don't believe that Claire's mother, a mere Baroness's funeral can affect their actions. They can kill her at any time and anywhere, but they have been dragging their feet. Isn't it just to see our reaction?

Leading us out and then catching us all in one fell swoop is probably the result the royal family wants. Naturally, it is not difficult to see that uprooting our Fenrir faction is what they want to achieve. "After listening to his subordinates, Fenrir nodded silently.

After all, he knew very well that his confidant was not talking nonsense.

In fact, Fenrir himself didn't care about [The Thirteen Night Sword].

But these guys who are deeply involved with the cult know a lot. With the nature of these nobles, if they are really caught, they will sell out the cult as long as there is a chance to survive.

Therefore, the two princesses in the palace are actually waiting for their side to kill them.

In this way, they don't have to bear the crime of killing nobles indiscriminately.

I have to say that this is a very clever plan.

Needless to say, this plan must have been thought up by King Klaus.

But what if I know it?

If I take action, it will be exactly what they want. Maybe the other party has already set up a trap and is waiting for people to jump into the pit.

If I don't take action and wait for the [Thirteen Night Swords] to be cleared, and then they will be caught by the net, I will not feel good either, after all, those guys in the [Thirteen Night Swords] know a lot.

As for taking the initiative to cut off the tail and survive, it has not reached that step yet. After all, how strong are the two princesses, no one can give a definite answer at present.

What if they are not that strong?

In addition, it is not easy to take the initiative to cut off the tail. Although Fenrir does not regard the people below as human beings, he cannot take the initiative to admit defeat before the other party takes action.

Once the evaluation of the cult is lowered, resulting in a decrease in the deterrence of the cult, won't it just give others an excuse?

You should know that the reduction in the production of Diabolos Essence this year has become a foregone conclusion, otherwise the cult would not be anxious to revive the demon Diabolos in order to obtain more Diabolos Essence.

It is precisely because the amount of Diabolos Essence is limited that the chances of those who rank lower are low.

One year of life is also life.

Who doesn't want to fight for a chance?

In this case, if you make a mistake, can you still expect others to be merciful and let it go?

How is it possible?

Not only will those guys not let it go, they may even deliberately target it. If it goes wrong, your seat will be reduced.

Although it will not reach the level of depriving the seat, if the production of Diabolos Essence cannot be restored in the next few years, the chance of getting it will be a bit low.

At that time, you may have to kill the people who can get it.

And this means starting a civil war, and then there will be huge external troubles. If it goes wrong, the Diabolos Cult will become history in this era. Fenrir doesn't want to see this situation.

It is precisely because of enough consideration that Fenrir understands more and more why his confidant insists on the opportunity in front of him.

Because as long as Sid Kagenor is captured and Claire is controlled, then no matter what the result is in the Kingdom of Midgar, his position in the cult will not be affected.

At worst, he can just move to another area. With absolute strength, he is the boss wherever he goes.

But the problem now is how to make sure that this is not a trap.

The possibility that Sid Kagenor is used as bait is still very high.

In addition, the women related to this man are stronger than each other, so how can we conclude that this man is weak?

After all, it is easy for a real master to hide when facing someone who is not as strong as himself.

"Lord Fenrir, let's try it once! Relying on the power of the Sanctuary, even if it fails, at least we can get away with it." The confidant saw Fenrir pondering, and actually understood what his boss was worried about.

After all, without this IQ, he would not be able to get to this position now.

"Okay, let's try it once." Fenrir decided immediately.

After all, it is not a solution to be pressed step by step until the noose around the neck is completely tightened.

And the opportunity now is really rare, who asked Claire and Alexia and Alice, who is usually stationed in the Magic Swordsman Academy, are not here at the moment.

If you miss this opportunity, you don't know if there will be a next time.

"Well, I'll go and prepare." The confidant said immediately.

"Call all the sons of Diabolos who can be mobilized the fastest at present." Fenrir added immediately.

"Yes, sir!" After saying that, the man immediately turned around and left.

An hour later, in the huge training ground of the first group of Wangdu Wuxinliu in the Magic Swordsman Academy, Li De, who was practicing alone, suddenly felt a strange magic power.

Then an inexplicable white mist appeared and enveloped the training ground.

"What happened?"

"Why is there white mist?"

The students in the training ground have not figured out what happened at this moment.

One after another, figures covered in fighting robes appeared with hurried footsteps, and then surrounded the students in the training ground.

"Sid." One of them just spoke, and was interrupted by another crisp voice.

"Finally appeared, you rats in the gutter!"

With the sound, Claire's figure appeared in front of Li De.

"Claire Kageno, how could you appear in the Holy Land." Seeing the person clearly, the person who spoke at this moment was full of disbelief in his tone.

"I don't need to answer you!" When Claire said you, the person had already arrived next to this person.

The next moment, all the people, including this person, burst into pieces instantly, and blood was splattered everywhere.

"Ah!" Screams followed one after another.

Some timid students were even shocked after seeing this scene.

When these people reacted, they found that Claire, who had resolved the crisis in the training ground, had already left with Reed.

"Running so fast doesn't fit the image of the Diabolos Knights of the Round Table in my mind." In the ancient small church in the corner of the academy, Reed and Claire said to Fenrir who was stopped.

"It's really a trap." Fenrir replied with an unusually gloomy face.
